Track Review: On Fillmore - "Master Moon"
I really want to post the new Rihanna single.

Artist:

Album:Rated R

Track:Russian Roulette
But here's the thing.It got released about half an hour a go. I'm in class, and have yet to hear it. Frankly, while I am obnoxious enough to make a blog post in the middle of class, I'm not obnoxious enough to take out my headphones and freak out to the new Rihanna single in the middle of class.Also because of this dilemma, I can't really preview which YouTube video I can embed here because, on...

Show Stopper: Daniel Johnston

Artist:

Album:
Yesterday evening, I managed to get myself a ticket for Daniel Johnston's early show at The Mod Club in Toronto. Not sure what I was expecting exactly, but after listening to his latest record Is And Always Was (buy here) about 5 times in the past few days, I knew that I would absolutely enjoy this experience. I wasn't wrong.Unfortunately getting there too late to catch any of the opening bands...

Billboard Thursday: Ke$ha - "TiK ToK"
-
Artist:Ke$ha
-
Track:TiK ToK
Two unbelievably amazing things happened today in Billboard-land.1. In a shocking (but kind of wonderful) twist, Britney Spears' "3" premiered at #1. I don't know if this is surprising to everyone or just me, but regardless it's pretty incredible. I figured after "Radar" had middling results that Brit was probably done for 2009, but apparently not.2. My favourite nonsense pop song of the year ...

Video Of The Week: Dan Deacon - "Paddling Ghost"

Artist:

Track:
This week's vid of the week, is for a track that blew me away. I haven't experienced a combination of audio and video in a music video telling a story this adventurous in quite some time. "Bromst" is a wonderful album, finally sat down and listened to it on vinyl the other day, and this is a great track, plus the puppets and set materials are just so cuuuutee. Check it out to your right, or by ...

Album:Contra

Track:Horchata
Here’s what you’ve all been waiting for since you listened to “Oxford Comma” 187 times in a row: a new Vampire Weekend song/album (!)But first, a lesson from my best friend, Wikipedia: Horchata is “the name for several kinds of traditional (Caribbean) beverages, made of ground almonds, sesame seeds, rice, barley or tigernuts.” Mmmm, tigernuts.But I digress. It so happens that Ezra Koen

Track:3
Is this song awful? Yes.Is this song also amazing? Yes.Britney Spears has this special gift where she can crank out songs that are absolute shit, but a special kind of absolute shit that doubles back on itself and becomes not shit. Her singles vary on their ability to transform from shit to not shit, but they generally do a fairly good job. Let me help you out by placing "3" on the Britney Shit...

It May Not Be New (But It's New To You)...The Guys - "Man With A Moustache"
-
Artist:
-
Track:Man With A Mustache
These dudes had a local hit with this outrageously fun party song about a year ago, but if you’re not from a very specific region in South-western Ontario, this is probably quite foreign.Warning: will make you want to cultivate outrageous facial hair (even more). Happy Listening!The Guys – “Man With A Moustache" (Download)

Billboard Thursday: Absolutely not, Ms. Underwood.
Don't get me wrong. I can appreciate all genres of music, even country. But, like, when it comes to Carrie Underwood's new single (and biggest Billboard gainer of the week) "Cowboy Casanova"......no. Just no.

Video Of The Week: HEALTH - "DIE SLOW"
This week's Video Of The Week is for HEALTH's new single, "DIE SLOW". The editing and flowing colours blew me away. A perfectly executed music video for such a tight track. I like to watch videos like this. I like it a lot. Check to the right, or by clickin' this here chicken.HEALTH - "DIE SLOW"Directed by HEALTH (John Famiglietti)

Who loves Pance Party? I do.
Y'all know I can't resist a Pance Party track. I came across this one a while a go, but at that point it was part of a remix contest and I didn't have clearance to post it. Well, now I do. Score one for YE-LID.It's pretty surreal to hear Lil Jon getting mixed up in Pance Party's hard-as-fuck electro world. Listening to Swizz Beatz yell something about "tryin' to get that Oprah" over a shredding...

Track Review: Midnight Juggernauts - "This New Technology"
Seeing as “Tombstone” was THE song of Summer ’08, it was with some anticipation that I approached “This New Technology”, the new track by Midnight Juggernaughts that will be appearing on an album of the same name sometime in 2010.Y’know how disappointment can be described as the demolishing of anticipation? Well, look no further, beloved readers.“Tombstone”, and the whole of Dystop
